The Protocol for the Multi-Ethnic, multi-centre raNdomised controlled trial of a low-energy Diet for improving functional status in heart failure with Preserved ejection fraction (AMEND Preserved).
BMJ Open

Department of Cardiovascular Sciences, University of Leicester and the National Institute for Health Research Leicester Biomedical Research Centre, Glenfield Hospital, Leicester LE3 9QP, UK
Introduction: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterised by severe exercise intolerance, particularly in those living with obesity. Low-energy meal-replacement plans (MRPs) have shown significant weight loss and potential cardiac remodelling benefits. This pragmatic randomised trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of MRP-directed weight loss on exercise intolerance, symptoms, quality of life and cardiovascular remodelling in a multiethnic cohort with obesity and HFpEF.

School of Healthcare Sciences, Bangor University, Bangor, Wales. LL57 2DG. Electronic address:
Objectives Hospice services offer invaluable support to individuals facing life-limiting illnesses, however, quantifying their positive impact presents a challenge. As the demand for palliative care rises due to complex illnesses and an aging population, hospices face the need to prove their value. With funding primarily reliant on charitable donations and limited statutory support, they must demonstrate their effectiveness to secure additional resources in a competitive landscape.

January 2025
Department of Clinical Sciences, Lund university, Malmö, Sweden; Department of Pediatrics, Skåne University Hospital, Malmö. Sweden. Electronic address:
Background: Alkylresorcinols are a well-established biomarker for whole grain intake. There is evidence suggesting that total plasma alkylresorcinol concentration may also be used as a biomarker for gluten intake in adults.
Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate if total alkylresorcinol concentration is a valid biomarker for gluten intake in young children.
Environment-wide association study of five per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFASs) exposure pathways in Korean adolescents from the Korean National Environmental Health Survey (2018-2020).

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are widely used in consumer products and are easily encountered in daily life. PFASs that accumulate in the human body can negatively affect adolescent health. This study aimed to identify key exposure pathways that influence serum PFAS levels in Korean adolescents, using data from the Korean National Environmental Health Survey (2018-2020) cycle 4.

Hepato Pancreato Biliary Unit. Hospital del Mar. Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona, Spain. Electronic address:
Objective: The costs related to robotic surgery are known to be greater than those associated with laparoscopy. However, the potential for better outcomes of the former could lead to a cost-effectiveness advantage. The aim of this study is therefore to highlight the difference in cost-effectiveness between robotic and laparoscopic rectal resection.
